Supervision details

Welcome to my Counselling Supervision Practice, where I offer a supportive and reflective environment for counselling trainees, qualified counsellors, and organisations. In addition to general supervision, I have a special focus on supervising work with children and young people. As a therapist I work integratively with a variety of theoretical approaches including person centred, psychodynamic and cognitive behaviour modalities with both adults and children and young people. Working with supervisees, I use a combination of supervision models, ensuring that supervision is tailored to your unique needs, fostering both personal and professional growth.​ 

I understand how crucial the supervision relationship can be to support you along your professional journey from developing competence and confidence in your practice, discussing complex cases, navigating ethical dilemmas and providing constructive feedback, enhancing self awareness and preventing burnout through self care. 

If you would like to discuss your professional supervision needs further please get in touch. 

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
